Lamar Odom -- Back on the Market
Lamar Odom is officially on the market -- the real estate market -- hoping to unload his lavish L.A. bachelor pad for a cool $2.39 million.
The house boasts 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms plus your standard mansion fare -- pool, jacuzzi, and outdoor barbecue.
No word yet on why he's ditching the crib -- but it might have something to do with the new place he's planning to buy with his ... "wife."
UPDATE: We've added over a dozen more pics of Lamar's pad.
Chris Brown There's No Place Like Home
Chris Brown may have to complete court ordered hard labor in Virginia as a part of his penance for beating up Rihanna ... but he's got a pretty cushy place to rest his head while doing it.
Brown recently twittered pics of the home -- filled with enough distractions to last a lifetime -- where he sought refuge after the infamous incident with his former girlfriend Rihanna.
Ironically, part of Chris' hard labor sentence will likely involve graffiti cleanup.

Prince Moves Out, Leaves $300K Behind
Only Prince can rent a home for $150,000 a month, leave behind a security deposit -- and the landlord doesn't know who to give it to.
According to a lawsuit filed in June, when Prince moved out of the home he rented in Beverly Hills, he left behind a $300,000 security deposit. 3121 Rep Inc., the company that claimed to have brokered the lease for Prince, has sued the owners to get the money back.
But the owners say Prince made all the payments himself -- 3121 was just an intermediary -- so the money should go straight to him.
Now the two sides are suing each other, with Prince caught in the middle -- 3121 wants the money they says is theirs, the owners just want their attorney's fees paid.
Meanwhile, Prince is probably sitting somewhere composing ballads, with no idea any of this is going on.

'Ferris Bueller' Star I Can't Afford My Old House!
There's a reason Cameron Frye will never return to the house where he and Ferris Bueller ruined his dad's precious Ferrari back in the day -- it's too damn expensive!

Paris Hilton World's Worst Neighbor
For the second time in less than a week, Paris Hilton turned her new neighborhood upside down -- this time cops were called to put an end to a nuclear argument.
It happened at 1 AM this morning. LAPD officers were called to the home of Paris' BF, Doug Reinhardt. Paris moved in on Monday. Apparently, Paris and Doug had such a screaming argument the neighbors couldn't sleep.
When cops arrived, we're told Paris and Doug wouldn't open the front gate, so they hopped the fence. Paris and Doug opened the door, cops spoke with them and the loud arguing stopped.
A TMZ spy says earlier in the evening, Paris and Doug were at an event in Hollywood and had a pretty intense argument. Apparently, they took it home.
The night Paris moved in, there was a ridiculously loud party and neighbors complained to cops. The next morning, six cars on the street were keyed.
Ben & Jen Blue Ribbon Home
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner have just purchased a mansion that was formerly owned by Gregory Peck -- thereby placing the couple the closest they will ever get to an acting Oscar.
The 8,000 square foot ranch house in the Pacific Palisades was sold to the couple for a whopping $17.5 million by mega-producer Brian Grazer, according to Hot Property. The five bedroom house features a gym, swimming pool and eight bathrooms -- and Gregory Peck once shot an ad for Pabst Blue Ribbon beer in the den.
The house was originally listed for $27.5 mil. Times are tough people, sometimes $17.5 mil is all a man can get.

Fiddy Gets Baby from Mama No Drama
This might be the most shocking development yet in the 50 Cent baby mama drama: An exchange between the two that didn't end -- or begin -- with fireworks!
We're told that Fiddy picked up his son Marquise yesterday from baby mama Shaniqua Tompkins -- and the drop-off went off "without a hitch"! The rapper and his boy haven't seen each other since before the house where Tompkins and Marquise were living burned down at the end of May.
Fiddy, we're told, will be spending time with Marquise at his home in Connecticut until the middle of next week, when he has to leave the country to film a movie. Explosions will likely resume in September, when the pair have to be back in family court to settle a restraining order.

The place is huge, but to put it in perspective, Candy Spelling's new apartment is smaller by about 2,000 square feet. Her APARTMENT!

Candy to Ed McMahon: I'm Losing My House Too
Even Candy Spelling is feeling the housing crunch -- she's scaling back from the infamous Spelling mansion to a paltry 16,500 square foot penthouse.
Spelling just dropped $47 million (!!!) of her late husband's money on a two-floor condo that is a third of the size of her 56,500 square foot Holmby Hills estate. The apartment is located on the 41st and 42nd floors of the brand new Century building and won't be ready until 2009 -- around the time Tori gives birth to her fifth rugrat.
Candy is giving up her notorious gift wrapping room, 3,500 square foot closet and bowling alley and making do with the condo's two fireplaces, dining room for 25, staff quarters, massage room, rose garden and private swimming pool. These are tough times, people!
